NetworthIQ has received national press from BusinessWeek and others for an unorthodox idea: Get people to post personal financial info online, then link them to tools and advice that can help them improve their circumstances.

Site users keep their name, SSN and other identifying details secret to maintain a level of privacy and protect themselves from theft.

NetworthIQ was developed by a collective of four Portland Web developers who call themselves Fourio. One of the four, Ryan Williams, will go to Strands along with his site. Ryan tells me he'll split time between Portland and Corvallis, driving down there a couple times a week.

Neither Strands nor Fourio will say how much NetworthIQ sold for, but Ryan said it's not retirement-scale money.
